🌥⛈ Actually any Holiday 2021 / 22 / 23/ 24 / 25

Not quite. My Spanish stops at copa de vino tinto per favor. And although I’m savouring a splendid Rioja, I’m listening (from a decent distance on my pitch) to the campsite entertainer doing Karaoke Tom Jones and Elvis.

Sometimes I have to submit to the mundane and put my aesthetic proclivities on hold.

Phonetically

Dos mass = two more

Una mesa para dos = table for two

Not sure you need much more than that!

Un Otro Por Favor. While pointing to the empty bottle of Rioja

No, you shout “Oi Manwell more vino por favour”

The Ayatollah is fluent in Spanish and over the years she has coached me to say the odd word - unfortunately she has given me the equivalent of a scouse accent which the locals interpret that I can also chatter away. So after spouting my carefully curated phase and being answered in machine gun Spanish, all I have is “que?”

Just got back from our all inclusive Rhone River Cruise. Many of the freebies were most welcome but one was not…tested positive for Covid and assume Lady Slowlane’s cough is the same. :lou_eyes_to_sky:

You’ve had your jab though, right?

Lined up for one in a few weeks with a flu jab.

Very decent meal tonight. Excellent fish stew of hake, monkfish, prawns, langoustines mussels and clams, and a sole for Mrs S. Plus good wine and starters for under €70. Result.
